The story Hannity shared was reported Thursday and pertained to Attorney General Jeff Sessions mobilizing Justice Department prosecutors to talk to FBI agents about the evidence in a past criminal investigation that found no wrongdoing by Hillary Clinton in the controversial Uranium One deal. Critics have suggested Clinton influenced the deal in exchange for donations to her family foundation, but in addition to the FBI, outlets like Snopes and FactCheck.org have looked into the matter and found no evidence to support such claims.

Minutes after his first tweet, Hannity tweeted a screenshot from MSNBC that featured an article about Russian bribery and the uranium deal published in October by The Hill.
